CPSIA is good for the industry it helps keep imports out that do not meet the CPSIA requirements.
The PIA has just given wide open support to the imports of printed material with total disregard for the US jobs that will be lost to nations importing printed material into the USA.
The following chemicals benzene, toluene, cumene, Parachlorobenzotrifluoride, 2-Butoxyethanol Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether, 1,2,4-Trimethyl Benzene, 1,3,5-Trimethylbenzene, Diethanolamine,D-Limonene, Butyl Oxitol,Triethanolamine, n-Hexane and many others including known carcinogens and mutagens are virtually non regulated in many parts of the world and are used every day in the printing industry worldwide including the USA. The afore mentioned chemicals can be found on MSDS sheets of products used by the Printing industry in the US. These are sold, blended and manufactured world wide. In the USA these can be legally manufactured with the proper paperwork.
The PIA has subverted congress and the CPSIA into believing that all of the US printing industry IS ENVIRONMENTAL AND SUSTAINABLE. When all of these chemicals along with many others are no longer used in the US printing industry then and only then can we begin to say Environmental and Sustainable.
The PIA looks at this as a victory for the US printing industry when in all reality it is a wide open invitation for all children's print manufacturers to have wide open markets with very little consequences.
